Repair Mac File Structure

April 9th, 2008, 22:58

When R-Studio, TestDisk, and PC-3000 DE fail to detect or repair a Mac partition what else could I try? My recovered image is perfect with no defects. Either the customer tried to install the OS or someone deleted it. I believe it has a HFS+ partition on it. Even recovering the file names from a raw recovery would be helpful. Thanks.

mac fils sys is HFS or HFS+,so all the sofwares you mentioned have to support its format!
if you insured you image is completed,you had better scanning it on MAC platform.you must have been an expert on working with MAC ,understanding its logical disk structure and inner-workings of macintosh disk! of course it would take much of your time!
on mac os,you can try norton,techtoolpro ,data rescue for data recovery ,if disk structure has been damaged seriously, modification manually with WINHEX or diskEditor will be your last straw.

Hello to all,

I used this guide to fix my MacBook it worked well
http://www.fixya.com/support/r935084-mac_repair_disk

I was quite happy with the results, till one of my friends told me this might damage my Mac.
Is it possible that this tool will cause me trouble in the future? Does my friend know what he is talking about?

Thank you,
Wends.
